IMPROVEMENT IN CARRlA GE- PAINTERS STANDQ.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 135,771, dated February 11, 1873.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOEL BURTCH, of Halls Corners, county of Ontario and State of New York, have invented certain Improvements in Carriage-Painters Stands, of which the follow ing is a specification:

The object of my invention is to construct a stand on which articles to be painted, varnished, 820., can be fastened, and can thus be raised and lowered, turned around, or tilted to any angle or position desired.

The accompanying drawing is a perspective view of the stand complete, showing the most of its parts quite clearly.

General Description.

A is a hub, attached to which are the three legs B B B, and in which is supported and allowed to revolve the standard 0, at the top of which is the ball-and-socket joint D, the socket of which is formed in two halves and held together with the bolt E, on which is the cranknut F. G is a spider or piece on which articles to be painted are to be fastened, and which is attached to the ball by the short rod X. By tipping the said rod into either of the notches cut in the socket for the purpose, the spider, with its burden, is tilted to any desired position. H is a forked piece, which is placed astride the standard, catching into the grooves in the same and resting on top the hub, thereby holding the standard to any desired elevation. I is a 1ever, one end of which passes through the hub A and into the grooves in the standard, and which is used to elevate and depress the said standard, a fulcrum being formed by the pin J, which passes through the flanges K on the hub.

Claims.

I claim asmy invention- 1. The tilting piece G, combined with the universal joint D, for the purpose specified.

2. The revolving and adjustable standard 0, for the purpose specified.

3. The general construction of the stand, for the purpose specified.

JOEL BURTOH.
